Then, as afterwards, it was a case of the party seeking the man. It was eight years later—in 1912—that Mr. Ferris again was a gubernator- ial candidate, and this time te was elected. Two years later he was re-elected, winning over Chas. S. Os- born, a former governor. After serving two years as govern- or, Mr. Ferris resumed his school work at Big Rapids, leaving his books only in 1920 to seek the go ernorship again, and going down with his party in the Republican landslide.
